A low-performing integration tool
We use it as an in-house back-type integration tool. It allows us to have different integrations between different systems It does not perform well. It needs more reusable components that are unlimited in time. Furthermore, it relies on the files systems and does not create components, so it is…

Used for wrangling or transforming data from sources like S3 and Databricks
I use Matillion ETL for wrangling or transforming data from sources like S3 and Databricks The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is the UI experience in which you can drag and drop most of the transformation. Sometimes, we have issues with the solution's stability and need to restart it for…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The stability of the solution is OK."
"It takes less than five minutes to set up and delivers results. It is much quicker than traditional ETL technologies."
"It's been able to do everything we require."
"The loading of data is the most valuable feature of Matillion ETL."
"The technical support treats us well. They already have a support portal, and they are responsive, which helps."
"The simplicity of this tool is nice. It has a good graphical user interface. You can also do a lot of generic stuff in the tool. If there is good connectivity to a cloud database, such as Snowflake, and you can have a lot of Snowflake functionality in the tool."
"The product has a good user interface."
"The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is the UI experience in which you can drag and drop most of the transformation."
"Matillion ETL helps manage data movement, ingestion, and transformation through pipelines."
 

Cons

"It is not performing well."
"Unlike Snowflake which automatically takes care of upgrading to the latest version and includes additional features, with Matillion ETL we need to do this ourselves."
"In the next release, we would like to have connections to more databases."
"Matillion ETL should include more enhanced capabilities for extracting data from the SAP systems."
"Performance can be improved for efficiency, and it can be made faster."
"I found some of the more complex aspects of ETL challenging, but I grasped the concepts fairly quickly."
"The improvement area could be possible if the tool provides better integration capabilities with other ecosystems, including governance tools or data cataloging tools, as it is currently an area where the solution is lacking."
"The tool's lineage is very weak."
"Matillion’s on-premises capabilities don’t allow you to build something customized."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Matillion ETL has a pay-as-you-go pricing model of a few dollars per hour of runtime."
"The AWS pricing and licensing are a cost-effective solution for data integration needs."
"The solution is very cheap. You're paying $2.50 an hour and if you set your service up, which you can do, you're not getting charged. Currently, our ETL process is just an overnight process that runs for about an hour. I can start and stop my server just for an hour if I want to and spent $2.50 a day for an ETL solution. There are no additional costs."
"I think it is cost conscious. It used to be very cheap and they have more recently bumped up the pricing, so it is competitive now."
"The solution's pricing is not based on the licensing cost but on the running hours when the Matillion instance is up and running."
"Its price depends on what you expect. You pay on a monthly basis, but there is a possibility to have special contracts depending on the installation."
"It is not necessarily a cheap solution. However, it's reasonable priced, especially with the smaller machines that we run it on."
"The price of Matillion ETL is reasonable."
